The Wanderer
A silent play - a parable about our need for God's nourishing aid
and comfort - told through movement and pantomime, about a wanderer
searching for food. High up on a pedestal, he spies of plate of
delicious fruit just out of reach. He does everything he can to
reach the food, but is unable to. When a guide comes along, he
shrugs off her help, but eventually he gives up and the guide is
able to help him reach the nourishment he has been so desperately
seeking.

What You Will
The author of a short church play is being guided by the voices of
his/her own ego as he/she attempts to craft something that will
touch and speak to the people in his/her church. But the attempt is
muddled by selfishness and greed. So the author must learn to trust
God and turn his/her work over to the one true Creator - realizing
that even in our sinfulness, God will use us as He will.
